Aquasana's exclusive dual filter system uses a combination of carbon filtration, ion exchange and sub micron filtration to produce truly healthy, great-tasting water conveniently from your kitchen tap. Filters out chlorine, lead, prescription drugs, pharmaceuticals, VOCs, MTBE and cysts (chlorine-resistant parasites) and leaves in the natural trace minerals!

Naturally healthy, great-tasting water at the touch of a button for under 10¢ a gallon. No other product, at any price, has ever produced better results than Aquasana! Aquasana's contaminant reduction capabilities are third-party tested and certified by the California Department of Public Health Services.

IMPORTANT: Do not use where water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown microbiological quality, except that systems claiming cyst reduction may be used on water containing cysts.

The Aquasana Drinking Water Enhancement System

Ultra high-quality drinking water at the convenience of tap water for under 10¢ a gallon!**

This product represents a new era in home water treatment. Independent laboratory tests document this system’s

ability to reduce specific contaminants effectively and economically.

Contaminant reduction claims have been evaluated and certified by the California Department of Public Health

Services for accuracy. Testing was preformed by Underwriters Laboratories to NSF/ANSI 42

& 53.

Aquasana’s twin-cartridge, multi-stage filtration process uses a combination of the most effective

technologies available, mechanical filtration, absorption and ion-exchange.

The patented product selectively reduces specific contaminants while allowing the natural trace minerals to

remain, creating truly healthy, great tasting water for drinking, cooking, and preparing beverages.

The “A” cartridge… reduces sediment and turbidity first, tiny microscopic particles that can cause cloudiness

and unpleasant tastes and odors in water.

The “A” cartridge also reduces chlorine, the most concentrated and competitive chemical in tap water. This

allows the following stages in cartridge “B” to focus on the more difficult contaminants like lead and synthetic

chemicals.

The “B” cartridge… is where the final stages of filtration take place. Lead is reduced by a complex ion

exchange process that replaces harmful lead ions with healthful potassium ions. This is the most effective method

of lead reduction ever developed and enhances the natural mineral balance of water. Potassium is one of the

trace minerals that gives water a natural spring water taste and a neutral or alkaline pH. Next is the most challenging

and possibly the most important stage, the absorption of synthetic chemicals like herbicides, pesticides

and industrial solvents. (see “Documentation” under the more information link of each product for specific claims)

The “B” cartridge is a 0.5 micron absolute filter that is effective for the reduction of chlorine resistant organisms

and cysts like Cryptosporidium and Giardia, two common water borne parasites that cause flu like symptoms

for most, but can be fatal to small children and the elderly.

Chlorine is a yellow-green, poisonous, gaseous compound with a pungent odor and a high potential for irritation. It is most often used as a water purification agent or as a bleaching and/or disinfection tool. When ingested in the liquid form, chlorine can lead to several types of cancer, including bladder, rectal, and breast cancer. When inhaled in the gaseous form, chlorine is a known cause and/or irritant of the respiratory conditions asthma and bronchitis. In addition, dermal absorption of chlorine can cause severe skin irritations.

Lead is a heavy metal substance used in several types of piping and as an additive in paint. It most typically makes its way into drinking water through the corrosion of household plumbing systems or the erosion of natural deposits into surface water sources. Ingestion of lead in drinking water has both short-term and long-term effects. Short-term exposure to lead in adults can interfere with red blood cell chemistry and increase blood pressure. Long-term exposure can result in kidney failure and/or stroke. Lead ingestion in children can cause severe physical and mental developmental delays.

Volatile organic chemical (VOC) is the umbrella term for a large number of synthetic chemicals found in drinking water. These chemicals were first discovered in drinking water in 1977 and have now been identified as present in the water of 33 states. VOCs make their way into water through a variety of sources, including septic system cleaning, weed and pest control, fumigation, and dry cleaning. When ingested, VOCs are known to cause cancer, adversely affect liver and kidney functioning, and disrupt nervous system performance. When inhaled or dermally absorbed, VOCs can severely irritate the tissue of the lungs and the skin.

Methyl-t-butyl ether (MTBE) is a member of a group of chemicals generally called fuel oxygenates. MTBE is typically added to unleaded gasoline to reduce its carbon monoxide and ozone content. MTBE makes its way into drinking water through several sources, including leakage of underground storage tanks, fuel spills, emissions from marine engines, and, to a small extent, condensation of exhaust fumes. Because MTBE is a relatively new contaminant, the EPA is currently conducting tests to clarify the potential health effects of ingesting MTBE in drinking water.
